how dare you not let me enjoy the next few days of reasonable temperature in peaceful ignorance 😭

this is absolutely what i wish they’d do here (australia)

supermarkets don’t just have empty fridges running though… if they didn’t have eggs there, they’d fill it with other produce that they’d sell (and wouldn’t likely fill it with things they wouldn’t sell: supermarkets like spoilage even less than energy waste), or they’d not have that section refrigerated

other than being a waste of electricity it’s not

episodes shouldn’t be assumed to be exploring the same moral or philosophical points… it’s very difficult to explore complex logical arguments through innuendo whilst also maintaining a consistent grounding for all of them

and also, the decision is left up to the viewer: by presenting situations that both (perhaps) cross, and do not cross the line it allows us to form our own opinions, rather than the shows writers convince us of their idea of what’s right and wrong

people are fallible: the shows writers, and the characters. in some of that inconsistency, we can form our own ideas of what we believe

i think that the existence of the disease is more of a maguffin than the point that the solution was achieved without section 31… the “problem” could have been any number of unrelated things (eg some spacial anomaly threatening the founders for some reason, etc) and the fact that it’s s31 is more an interesting plot device to create other narratives around, rather than degrading the ultimate point

similarly stupid is not washing the eggs and then still refrigerating them because people assume it’s necessary because they see it in stuff from the USA even though it wasn’t like that for their entire life and everything was fine

it would be kinda funny if UKs former colonies joined after brexit

i shoved a cheap used nvidia card into my machine and now transcode isn’t an issue - $20, problem solved and now it’s a solved problem for pretty much any weird format

while all that is fairly true, competition usually leads to better outcomes across the board. i think that alternatives rather than replacements is the idea, and spreading those opportunities across the globe will probably be beneficial in the long-run

counter point: there are hundreds of articles and probably hundreds of thousands of comments about gemini etc and their US political censorship too

i think in this case it’s a reasonably unbiased comment

soap? what is this?! be a real man and wash with sandpaper

added advantage: you probably already have some for the toilet

some people are averse to it because some hugely high percentage of all websites run through it - for privacy reasons, that’s not a good thing - if they enshittify, their data set could be more valuable than metas

news.com.au is the fox news of australia fyi

other sources like 2GB that got mentioned are equally (perhaps more) trash. 2GB for example hosts our local version of alex jones

you can do similar things for free with cloudflare, if you don’t have an aversion to using cloudflare

i don’t really know too many people that have to claim deductions unless they’re running a business, and business tax is of course different because you have to pay all your employees tax etc (which is what makes it so simple for employees)

it really is just next next next done and you receive a deposit into your nominated bank account

ceasefire in this case absolutely hurts ukraine… russia has manufacturing capability and time allows them to replenish their supplies. time does nothing to help ukraine, unless their foreign allies are manufacturing arms for them in the same way russia will be

it’d be amazing to see an end to the war, but don’t kid yourself: a ceasefire gives russia an asymmetric advantage

Where was you lesser evil while the corrupt supreme court was bought and paidfor?

not doing that

Where was your less evil for the last 4 years on abortion right

not doing that

imposing more legal limits on the president instead of less

not doing that

Democrats are just as bad fascist as republicans

soooooo not doing fascist things is “just as bad” as actively doing fascist things? is that what you’re saying?

if the experiment succeeded and they’re both selfless and humble that number should be 0

i agree, but there’s lots of waste in the world. this is just the way of things, and the best we can do is push for making things iteratively better over time - this is that… a wasteful use of money, but at least it’s pushing in the direction of open
